bom, I read it, it has nothing to do with my query.
By the way I am multilingual but too old and too burned out to teach. Hope someone else can use this info.

at US wages they will find third world candidates, they are all multilingual, like most of the world outside of the US.

No they aren't all multilingual, usually only bilingual. I know since I lived in Europe. In any case I don't really care since this is all irrelevant to my query.

Yes, but, this isn't 'your query' thread anyway. This is boozyoldbugger's thread about an article on vdare.

This is yours >> https://cambodiaexpatsonline.com/cambodi ... 12270.html

yes, most of the commonwealth greatest achivers, monolinguists mostly. Assuming everybody should ride on the wrong side of the road and thinking that Rolls Royce is a good enginge. It actuall is the third choice out of three, and those customers are commonwealth.

One, I no longer teach, nor have I done so for years now. Secondly when I lived there no free education was available to me. Actually I lived in Berlin and worked for a military intelligence unit that processed refugees and legally released persons. I was a Romanian, French and German linguist. I had a great job, learned a lot and improved my German tremendously. And bilingual by definition means two and only two languages. I now speak fluent although not native Cambodian so if you add English to the lot I am fluent in five languages. Not bad for a Merican.
